Properties Highest standards of hygiene We take our responsibility towards humanity very seriously, especially when it comes to hygienic pumps. For this reason, particular importance is placed on the highest precision and care in the production process at WANGEN PUMPEN. It is our goal to make the entry of bacteria and germs into our pumps as well as the living conditions as difficult as possible. Thus, we are in a position to produce certain series of pumps according to the highest hygiene requirements of the EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group) for certified manufacturing procedures. We achieve this by using consistent and uncompromising production according to the highest hygiene standards. This also includes the special design and surface characteristics of our pumps and their assemblies, which avoids producing deposits forming in the casing during the production cycle. TYPE EL - CLASS I JUNE 2013 Our customers in the milk processing industry appreciate this because dairy products are especially vulnerable to micro-organisms in regard to the aspect of hygiene. 5
Properties Construction Characteristics Cutaway model: KL30-SL Bearing pedestal with self-centering and direct flange-fitting of the drive unit. This avoids damage to the gearbox. Main sealing material washed optimally within the product room as a mechanical seal. The construction of our pumps shows that they are consistently built for performance and reliability. For example, pumps of the KB- SL series are manufactured as a block construction, which completely suffices for media which e.g. exert only a lower impact on the pump, whereas the construction series KL-SL has a lot more alternatives in reserve, and can handle media ranging from highly abrasive and sticky properties to those which are particulate in nature. Cardan shaft and joints in stainless steel, open design for ease of cleaning ability Robust rotor of the highest quality from our own production available in various shapes Stators in various shapes from our own production 6
Benefits Maximum Reliability Pure power: Cardan shaft in WANGEN progressing cavity pumps In numerous industries, abrasive liquids are often pumped at high pressure or in continuous operation. Such heavy loads often lead to down times, for example, due to broken joints. For this reason, we only use robust parts made of the best quality materials in our standard suction pumps. The design was optimized over many years in detail and adapted to meet these challanges. Thus, Wangen pumps ensure low maintenance and disturbance-free operation. The bearing pedestral relieves the gear box and avoids damage in continuous operation. A cardan joint with a protective sleeve increases resistance and protects from loads with abrasive and fibrous mediums as well as loads with solid substances. Joints which are equal in diameter ensure a constant flowrate in the suction casing and thus prevent sedimentation and blockage in the pump 7
Benefits Maximum Variability WANGEN progressing cavity pumps have a modular design. A variety of standardised parts is available for each series and enables each pump to be adapted to meet your specific pumping requirements. Regardless of whatever branch of industry you work in, the medium to be pumped and your operational requirements: We offer the optimum solution for your application, regardless of the industry you work in, the medium to be pumped, and your operational requirements. Maximum variability: Various construction sizes and rotor/ stator sizes mean more than 100 models of the compact pump with a delivery rate ranging from 10 l/h up to large pumps which can handle flowrates up to 150 m³/h. A availability of a large variety of designs and materials for casings, rotors, stators, seals, joints ensure that optimum adaptation to the medium to be pumped can be achieved. Our broad spectrum of flange connections and drive units assures that the best possible solution for your installation and available space can be found. We would be happy to develop a solution for your specific design. 8
Benefits Low Life-Cycle Costs When purchasing a pump, we recommend that you carefully consider the operating costs as well as the costs for the initial outlay. Because maintenance costs, production downtimes and energy costs make up a considerable share of the total costs over the life-cycle of a pump. In this case, a decisive advantage of our philosophy becomes apparent: in order to keep total costs as low as possible over the entire life-cycle of the pump, our approach is to restrict the frequency of maintenance to a minimum. This can be achieved thanks to the robust construction of our pumps, the use of high quality wearing parts and choosing a wear-resistant design for each pump. Because every breakdown that can be avoided saves you not only the costs for spare parts, but also the costs for maintenance work and production downtimes. In this way, you save on your pocketbook and your nerves. Easy Maintenance In order to ensure the high availability of plant and equipment, many of our customers want to service their pumps themselves. For this reason, our pumps possess large inspection covers, for example, or maintenancefree components, such as the flexible rod, especially when it comes to tne aspect of hygiene. A change of rotor and shaft seal is also simple to perform, thanks to the good accessibility of the connecting bolts. The fact that WANGEN PUMPEN, amongst other things, comply with the highest hygiene standards is also due to the optimised, low dead-space design and construction of our pumps over the decades. 9
